Financial District, Toronto. November 2016
Currently, there is anticipation is for tonight’s snowstorm. The weather reports are out that it might be just as bad or “significant” as last night’s snow squalls and cold temperatures in Toronto. I’m anticipating to see how wintry it will look outside. A lot of people might not like the cold or winter or lots of snow, but I really don’t mind it too much. I like cozying up at home, listening to my favourite music channel, checking my social media channels, and of course blogging! Continue reading

Sept 22, 2016 – Kam Lo Dessert 甘露甜品
After our lunch at Kings H. K. Style Cafe, Willa and I walked a few blocks over to a well known old-school Chinese dessert shop called Kam Lo Dessert (甘露甜品). This was definitely a classic and traditional Chinese dessert shop from the look of it. Kam Lo Dessert also sold congee, “car noodles”, and street eats in addition to desserts.
Their walls were plastered with Chinese columnists and articles praising their desserts as well as menus written in Chinese.
